In the last year of the Mandate of Palestine, under British supervision, 6.8% of Palestine had Jewish owners, ~40% Christian, and the balance Muslim.

Israel has now seized more than 91%. That isn't something that was possible or permitted in Ottoman times. Or British.

Right, but that's not what I was talking about. I was specifically talking about the origins of the conflict, not the contemporary realities of this latest iteration.

The origins of current conflict is 1930s Zionist plan to conquer Palestine and NAKBA. That is modern era and we should focus on that and not dilute it by the endless going back to ancient history.

It was pure theft and colonialism. Planned by Zionist movement in 1930s. Executed by terror Israeli organizations that later became government and IDF.
